Grjótagjá


Grjótagjá is a lava cave with thermally heated water in the rift zone near Mývatn where the Eurasian and American plates drift apart.
In the 18th century outlaw Jón Markússon used it as a refuge, later locals and tourists bathed in it until the water got too hot during the Krafla Fires (1975-84). After the end of the eruptions the temperature slowly cooled again, but remains unpredictable.
Grjótagjá (Jon Snow's cave) shot to fame with GoT, attracting masses of visitors and vandalism. The private landowners were forced to prohibit bathing in both Grjótagjá and neighbouring Kvennagjá.

Nun ist es klar geworden.
Ich wusste gar nicht, dass es dort auf dieser Insel auch solche Probleme gab wie "Ächten". Ich dachte bisher immer, das wäre ein Hort der Gerechten und Zufriedenen...
Gudrun club has replied to ©UdoSm clubIslands berühmtester Geächteter Fjalla-Eyvindur (der hatte Schafe geklaut) überlebte mit seiner Frau 20 Jahre im Hochland in Oasen mit heißen Quellen. Dem Vernehmen nach soll er Unterstützer gehabt haben, die ihn im Winter im Tiefland auf ihren Höfen versteckten, die Kolonialherren waren nicht beliebt....
